The Tony Awards will remain on CBS under a new five-year deal announced Wednesday. The network revealed that it has sealed a new broadcast agreement with the American Theatre Wing and The Broadway League that will keep the kudocast on CBS through 2032.
\n\nThe Tonys have been on CBS since 1978 — and now reps the longest-running major awards show/network partnership, as the Grammys, Oscars, Golden Globes and Emmys have all struck new deals in recent years, moving from their longtime homes.
\n\nThe deal also means the 80th annual Tony Awards, broadcast from New York’s Radio City Music Hall, will air live on CBS (and the premium tier of Paramount+) on June 13, 2027, at 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT.
\n\n“CBS has a celebrated history of supporting the creative arts on television and the Tony Awards are a cornerstone of that past, present and future,” said CBS Entertainment president Amy Reisenbach in a statement. “George Cheeks and I are thrilled to extend the Network’s 48-year partnership with the American Theatre Wing and The Broadway League and showcase the extraordinary talent, unforgettable performances and incomparable energy of Broadway to viewers across the country for years to come.”
